The building collapsed due to the poor quality of construction, illegal floors and two illegal cellars and excavation works in the neighboring plot.

GHMC officials said that "an excavation work up to 40-foot depth was being carried out by Swagruha Ventures in the neighboring plot. This is believed to have weakened the building’s foundation."
